What u gonna do when u got be sixty five,U may be with ur family or may not be alive,Future is a mistery that no one realy knows.Sri Lanka's headed for distruction,The cold wind sadly blows.

I see sunshine in my daughter's eye.I am happy, because I am breathing and alive.There is love here, and I'm young again.I just wanna tell ya that I love you.

Now who am I to tell that ur life been realy good,U may have seen the things I have seen.Or u may have missed them too.This country is in a shit pit, with guns, bombs and bribes.And all the politicos, taking us for a ride.

I see sun shine in my daughters eye.I am happy, because I'm breathing and still alive.I feel love here and I'm young again.I just wanna tell ya that I love you.

Not an hot shot original. Based on a song we used to sing a generation ago!

This came my way in celebration of International Womenís Day. It is dedicated as a poem from a Mother (The Greatest Woman we all ever meet). Included in this tread as my Mom is still breathing and alive, and I still have time to love her for all that she has done for me.

THE TIME IS NOW

If you are ever going to loveLove me now while I can knowThe sweet and tender feelingsWhich from true affection flow

Love me now while I am livingDo not wait until I am goneAnd then have it chiseled in marbleSweet words on ice cold stone

If you have tender thoughts of mePlease let me know nowIf you wait until I am sleepingNever will be death between us

And I won't hear you thenSo if you love me, even a little bitLet me know while I am livingSo that I can treasure it

Standing apart from my friends and family,Who are you to see my heart and read my mind?More than a friend, but much less a lover.I want you, to show me the way. Ya! lead me on.

I sit at my desk and stare at the screen, waiting for the mail to appear.I know that through your busy schedule, youíll make a note for me.Not just hais or Byes, but essays with more insight.At times I fear that you know me better than my wife.

Although there is this unwritten law We should never face each other,We may forget our responsibilities,When you know someone so close,
